Does the Principal owe a duty to the Sally Sue

Learning Goal: I’m working on a business question and need the explanation and answer to help me learn.

Sally Sue was traveling west on Braddock Road when she was suddenly struck by a APS delivery truck. The driver Alex Ashton had been delivering packages in the West Springfield neighborhood just off Braddock Road. Alex lives close by and decided to head home to pick up his clothes and drop them off at the cleaners. Alex picked up his clothes and swung by his favorite cleaners, 9 to 5 Cleaners. He also picked up some clothes. He put them in the front seat of his work truck. He looked at his watch and realized he’d taken more time than he expected. He hopped back on the road headed to his next delivery. Just as he approached the light at Braddock Road, the light turned yellow. He thought he had enough time so he went through the light. He struck Sally Sue in the intersection. Alex was so upset at the scene. He next delivery was just across the street. Why didn’t he wait for the light to change.

Will APS delivery truck services be held responsible for the Sally’s injuries caused by the accident? Support your answer with the fact provided above and the principles provided in Chapters 23, 24, 25. What legal doctrines are applicable to this issue?
